Happy Engineers Day |
The discipline of engineering is extremely
broad, and encompasses a range of more specialized fields
of engineering, each with a more specific emphasis
on particular areas of applied science, technology and types of application. An
Engineer can be Plumber, Electrician, Carpenter, jamidaar, doodhwala but not
vice versa. Engineering is one of those
studies in which you end up understanding people and life more than your
syllabus.
Engineering is the science, skill, and
profession of acquiring and applying scientific, economic, social, and
practical knowledge, in order to design and also build structures, machines,
devices, systems, materials and processes. This is how Internet defines
Engineering. I remember
how I discomfort when first time I looked at my Science, Mathematics and
numerous books after getting admission in 11th under Science stream. That was
the exact moment I choose non-medical when I decided "I'm going to be an
Engineer ever". Before my aim was to be a doctor like my father but due to
less no interest in biology I left medical side and also in my school there was
no one interested in biology except a girl. My father kept me to study for non-medical stream and I score respectable
marks in first division to get an institute.
So
it's Engineer's Day now. A day meant for all the geniuses who keep on working
hard, inventing, researching and developing incessantly without any
interruptions and failures. The world would have been a big void if Engineers
would not have contributed their piece of mind to it. It has been a very proud
moment to see that our country- India has produced many Engineers in last few
years who have managed to amaze us every time they came up with something new.
Engineering is the reason behind many inventions and creations. Every human
made object has engineering involved in it. The bike, car or bus you ride, the
washing machine that you use, the vacuum cleaner with which you clean your
house, the mobile that you operate, the television that you see, the mobile
through which you connect with your old and long-distance friends- All are the
results of magnificence shown by the engineers.
Engineering is quite different from science.
Scientists try to understand nature. Engineers try to make things that do not
exist in nature. Engineers stress innovation and invention. To embody an
invention the engineer must put his idea in concrete terms, and design
something that people can use. That something can be a complex system, device,
a gadget, a material, a method, a computing program, an innovative experiment,
a new solution to a problem, or an improvement on what already exists. Since a
design has to be realistic and functional, it must have its geometry,
dimensions, and characteristics data defined. In the past engineers working on
new designs found that they did not have all the required information to make
design decisions. Most often, they were limited by insufficient scientific
knowledge. Thus they studied mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and
mechanics. Often they had to add to the sciences relevant to their profession.
Thus engineering sciences were born.
Engineering has existed since ancient times as
humans devised fundamental inventions such as the wedge, lever, wheel, and
pulley. Each of these inventions is essentially consistent with the modern
definition of engineering. As with all modern scientific and
technological endeavors, computers and software play an increasingly important
role. As well as the typical business application software there are
a number of computer aided applications (computer-aided
technologies) specifically for engineering.
Computers can be used to generate models of fundamental physical processes,
which can be solved using numerical
methods.
It's a real proud moment to have so many friends who
are Graduates in Engineering. It's very easy to say "Aaj kal toh sadak pe ghumta har ek banda
Engineer hai" but it's very hard to earn the degree. Everything seems
to be fun and frolic from distance but the one who is in the process of getting
sharpen up for a bring future knows the struggle and obstacle in the journey. I
have done Bachelors in Information Technology. I found it very easy as my
University was MDU. But
when I was landed up into a renowned-MDU University for Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.),
I have started going through the pain
of what a Graduation of any field goes through. Before that day, whenever I found
any friend with a degree of B.Tech, a respect never came from within. But being in the First semester itself (of
B.Tech), I have started respecting all the geniuses who have passed out their
Graduation with respectable marks. And thus, I know now what a student goes
through in an Engineering college where once faces continuous tortures, assignments,
projects and I don't know what what....!!
I Salute the Dedication & Service of all
courageous peoples who consistently work for make our life easier. A Very Happy Engineer's Day to all the
Engineers of the world and to hit the bird's eye, I would like to wish all my
friends (whom I know personally) who have successfully held their Engineering's
Degree on their respective Convocations. It's a real proud moment to have so
many friends who are Graduates in Engineering.
